There are two different ways to set up your HP All-in-One with your computer based
on the number of phone ports on your computer. Before you begin, check your
computer to see if it has one or two phone ports.
●
If your computer has only one phone port, you will need to purchase a parallel
splitter (also called a coupler), as shown below. (A parallel splitter has one RJ-11
port on the front and two RJ-11 ports on the back. Do not use a 2-line phone
splitter, a serial splitter, or a parallel splitter which has two RJ-11 ports on the
front and a plug on the back.) For additional details, see the
5600 series
Troubleshooting section in the onscreen HP Image Zone Help .
